agree if i went and brought drench in 1 or 5 lt packs the cost is way higher but in saying that i have brought drench in 100 lt drums and it's worked out higher than buying 20 lt drumsAfraid not! I'm currently working in NZ and I would say most medicines are more expensive except for the big volume purchases- drenches etc. e.g. 100ml betmox $58
Welfare I would say was on par with UK - a lot less climate related diseases for one, average SCC is lower here but lameness is an issue in some of the larger dairy herds.
Climate is the one big advantage that NZ has over UK. Drug prices etc are much less significant
some things in bulk do work out cheeper bit like a 20 of roundup is cheeper than a 1 lt at the garden shop
